BEAUTIFUL UNHAPPY HOME
(Teddy Wilburn / Johnny Russell)

Ernest Tubb & Loretta Lynn – 1966

Also recorded by:
Johnny Russell



We were proud of this house that we found 
On a street in a nice part of town 
Had it furnished with care we were once happy here 
Now it's a beautiful unhappy home

Planted red sweet hard roses for you 
Painted our room your favorite blue 
Now, the colors remain but our love's not the same 
Oh it's a beautiful unhappy home 

What a beautiful unhappy home 
It's so hard to believe it's our own 
But we're both held here by a child we love dear 
In this beautiful unhappy home 

Yes we're both held here by a child we love dear 
In this beautiful unhappy home 
In our beautiful unhappy home
